LS-B110/LS-B110W
Thank you for purchasing the TOPCON LS-B110/LS-B110W.
For the best performance of the instruments, please read these instructions
carefully and keep them in a convenient location for future reference.
GENERAL HANDLING PRECAUTIONS
Before starting work or operation, be sure to check that the system is
functioning properly. Remove the batteries from the instrument when
you will not be using it for long period. When washing the instrument,
avoid spraying it with a high pressure stream of water from a water
hose. The inside of the instrument will be damaged by the water. This
instrument is designed based on the International Standard IPX 6, but it
is not protected from a high pressure water stream or submergence.
Affection of the radio waves
When using the instrument in the following place, the strong radio wave
may cause faulty operation.
• Near the instrument occurring strong radio waves. (e.g. Transceiver)
• Near the radio wave towers such as television or radio.
DISPLAY FOR SAFE USE
In order to encourage the safe use of products and prevent any danger to
the operator and others or damage to properties, important warnings are
put on the products and inserted in the instruction manuals.
We suggest that everyone understand the meaning of the following displays
and icons before reading the “Safety Cautions” and text.
• Injury refers to hurt, burn, electric shock, etc.
• Physical damage refers to extensive damage to buildings or equipment and furni-
ture.
HANDLING PRECAUTIONS
Guarding the instrument against shock
When transporting the instrument, provide some protection to minimize risk
of shock. Heavy shock may affect beam accuracy.

Height alert warning of rotating laser
A flash signifies that the height alert function of rotating
laser is operating.
(This function is not usable to the rotating laser which does
not have the height alert and the function to output alarm
signal.)
Flashes
Power-save function
Flashes
The instrument turns the power-save mode after detecting
no laser beam for more than approx. five minutes.
During the power-save mode, LED (1 yellow, 1 red) will
flash.
(The mode is canceled automatically when the instrument
detects a laser beam again. The mode can also be can-
celed by pressing the power switch again.)
Auto-cut off function
The power will be turned off automatically after detecting no laser beam for
more than approx. 60 minutes.
(To turn on the laser sensor, press the power switch again.)
* When turning the power on by pressing the power switch for more than
5 seconds, the power-save and the auto-cut off functions may be inval-
idated.
Connector for external communication
The LS-B110/LS-B110W can be used as the laser detecting sensor for any TOP-
CON machine control system by connecting the communication cable to the con-
nector for external communication. (Please contact your sales agent for details.)
Connecting the connector cable PC-18 (sold separately) to the connector for
external communication will enable the use of the LS-B110/LS-B110W from an
external power supply. When the instrument is operated with the external power
supply, the power-save and the auto-cut off functions will be invalidated. The LS-
B110/LS-B110W will turn on when connection is made to external power supply.
The power switch of the instrument will not function when an external power sup-
ply is used. Wireless communication will not function when using external com-
munication or an external power supply.
Tilt detection function
Switching the tilt direction
The tilt direction can be changed.
1Long-push the detective precision switch and the tilt switch at the
same time. The tilt direction mode setting changes in the following
order: "Back and Forth," "OFF" and "Right and Left." At this time, the
LED at the side of the mark indicating the tilt direction will flash. The
LED will not flash when the tilt detection function is switched OFF.
Switching the tilt precision
1Short-push the tilt switch. The tilt precision will change. At this time,
the LED at the side of the mark indicating the tilt precision will light up.
Zero position setting for the tilt sensor
Before using the tilt detection function, set the zero position of the tilt sensor
according to the directions below. The tilt direction must be set before set-
ting the zero position.
1Raise or lower the machine blade or arm where the LS-B110/LS-
B110W is installed to position the cutting edge or bucket at the
desired slope.
2Long-push the tilt switch. The tilt angle for the LS-B110/LS-B110W
will set to 0º.
To set the vertical zero position of tilt sensor to perpendicular.
1 Vertically position the machine blade or arm where the LS-B110/
LS-B110 is installed.
2 Rotate the LS-B110/LS-B110W on the pole each by 90º, and
confirm that the green LED in the tilt indicator is flashing in all
directions.
3 Set the zero position.
Tilt angles and display patterns
Tilt directions : Right and Left
Tilt directions : Back and Forth
Changing the ON-GRADE position function
The ON-GRADE position can be changed to the position where laser beam
is detected. Using this function when installing the LS-B110/LS-B110W on
the pole of the machine allows easy setting of the height at which the ON-
GRADE will be displayed on the LS-B110/LS-B110W. The range in which
the ON-GRADE position can be changed is ±75mm (total of 150mm) from
the center of the detective range.
1Long-push the zero-set switch while detecting the laser beam.
The LED display while changing the ON-GRADE position
The LED display indicating beam position and the LED (1 green) in the cen-
ter will flash.
Canceling the ON-GRADE position change
1Long-push the zero-set switch when not detecting the laser beam.
The ON-GRADE position will be reset.

Tilt indication will be displayed during laser detection and for 20
seconds after switch operation.
When changing the ON-GRADE position, the LED
lights up for three seconds, as shown in the figure. The
position where the laser beam is being detected will be
the ON-GRADE position.
The LED lights up as shown in the figure for three sec-
onds when you have failed to change the ON-GRADE
position. Be careful not to change the position at which
the laser beam is detected and try setting once again.
When the ON-GRADE position change is cancelled,
the LED (3 green) will flash for three seconds.
How to set up the wireless communication default setting (Only
LS-B110W)
Place the LS-B110W and RD-100W in close position, so that they will not be
affected by other wireless communications.
1 Turn on the power for both the LS-B110W and RD-100W.
2 Long-push the wireless communication switch for the LS-B110W
and RD-100W. While setting up, the wireless communication
LED (yellow light) will turn on.
3 When the instrument is ready to be used, the communication will
begin.
How to use wireless communication (Only LS-B110W)
When power for both the LS-B110W and RD-100W are turned ON, commu-
nication will automatically begin.
During communication, the wireless communication LED will flash quickly.
During communication preparation, the wireless communication LED will
flash slowly.

This instrument is able to perform wireless communication with the
RD-100W, sold separately.
See the RD-100W instruction manual for details on the RD-100W.
• If the communication fails, the wireless communication LED
will flash slowly. Eliminate any influence from other wireless
instrument and redo the communication default setting.
• While setting up the default, only the default OFF (short-push
of the wireless communication switch) is operable.
• When the detective precision, tilt direction, tilt precision or
ON-GRADE position settings are changed, the setting for the
RD-100W will also change in conjunction with the LS-B110W.
• If you wish to change the RD-100W to communicate, redo the
communication default setting.
